# Simplified pg\_instance Display

It's the concatenation of the server name or the fully qualified domain name (FQDN), followed by the **`@`** symbol, and ending with the instance name.  (example: **`pg-cluster-01@crm_prod)`**<br>

{% hint style="info" %}
This tag is essential for quick identification of your database instances.
{% endhint %}

Sometimes, the FQDNs can be lengthy and cumbersome. They can clutter your user interface, making it challenging to quickly locate the information you need.

### **Customizable Display Options**

Starting from version 2024.01, you can effortlessly manage the display of the **`pg_instance`** tag using a newly introduced checkbox in the general dashboards.

Choose to view:

* **The full pg\_instance name**&#x20;
* **Only the Instance name**\
  A streamlined view for instances where the FQDN is known or less relevant, keeping your interface clean and focused.

{% hint style="info" %}
The Filter bar and dynamic Filter fields continue to be smoothly integrated with the `pg_instance` tag, ensuring efficient and streamlined navigation.
